Today I find myself sitting in that space between Christmas and New Year’s. You know, that space where most people sit around nibbling on the goodness left over from Christmas while in wait for the celebration of New Year’s. For some folks, that space in between is the black hole of…
Baby, it’s cold outside
Winter is definitely here. As I look out my office window, I see snow. Snow on mountains, in yards, and on rooftops. I see the remnants of plowed snow along the curbs. It is unlikely to melt today…the temperature did not rise above freezing. Inside my office, it is warmer, but not warm enough. My…
Perspective Taking
We often don’t take the time to consider the many opportunities that arise each day, opportunities to look at something in a different way. My drive to work this morning gave me the chance to see the beauty created by cold and fog… pogonip…pogo meaning beard and nip meaning sharp or biting frost. It turns…
Two days: More random thoughts
We leave tomorrow and the surgery is in two days. Tomorrow at this time, we should be more than halfway to the coast. I would like to say that I slept really well again last night. However, not so much. I slept enough, just restless and BIZARRE dreams. I have mentioned in previous posts just…

Finding out that I need open heart surgery has opened my heart
I think that I have always known that life offers us opportunities to learn. I know that this belief became stronger as I studied psychology in college and graduate school. And I am certain that over the past 12 years, this belief has become even stronger and it has become apparent that the opportunities to…
Gratitude
I decided to do something new this week. I have felt some fear and trepidation, some frustration, and a lot of stress. In all of this, I think I lost track of the really important things. So this week, I began noting on Facebook (each morning) the things for which I was grateful. I wrote…
